Expert Verified By

Like The Fans, Sucker Punch Wants Infamous To Return!

Story Highlight
  • Sucker Punch previously expressed interest in seeing Infamous return.
  • Ghost of Yotei’s director is also on board with another studio handling a potential re-release.
  • Teams like Bluepoint or Virtuos would be perfect for the task due to prior experience with remasters and remakes.

The Infamous franchise has long been considered one of PlayStation’s best-rated first-party IPs. Despite its absence from the gaming industry, fan demand for a new Infamous entry has not waned over the years.

In fact, fans, now more than ever, hope to see PlayStation revisit this series. Sucker Punch itself has expressed interest in a potential return to Infamous, with the Ghost of Yotei director recently commenting on a potential re-release from a third-party team.

Why it matters: Sucker Punch has its hands full with Ghost of Yotei and expanding this IP through the upcoming film. Therefore, outsourcing Infamous would not be such a bad idea.

Speaking to MinnMax, the Ghost of Yotei director recently answered questions regarding his upcoming game and Sucker Punch’s past releases.

On the subject of Infamous, the director was first asked to rank all the games in the series. He ranked the first title as the best, suggesting that it remains his personal favorite all these years later.

When asked whether he would be okay with another studio potentially reviving the series, the director showed optimism and gave the green light.

That’s be great.

As for which studios could work on Infamous, teams like Bluepoint and Virtuos have developed a reputation for being proficient with remakes and remasters.

PlayStation’s internal teams also include Nixxes, a studio specializing in PC ports and re-releases. Therefore, there would be no shortage of options if the gaming giant did indeed decide to outsource this iconic IP for a revival.
